January 17, 200916 yr to work out your ratio do 100 divided by 13 (number of contest) times the amount, so if it was 4 females you'd do 7.69 x 4 Only 13 for the ever-dwindling amount of countries with a 100% participation record :(
January 17, 200916 yr Author Only 13 for the ever-dwindling amount of countries with a 100% participation record :( well yes, I should have said, divided by the amount of times you have participated
January 17, 200916 yr I actually disagree - I only see it happening for one contest a year tbh, as January has no national selections, February has no national selections in time for contest confirmation (and February could end up becoming a spin-off month to keep the contest in balance...), and NF fever has generally died off by April seeing as all the amazing entries will probably have been sent in March ;o Oh yeah, well I obviously don't pay enough attention to selection dates and stuff. :lol: STILL, I'm not impressed with people scooping up these. I think I'll be a bit bitter towards them. Maybe the spin-off mont hshould be March. :kink: After all, it was the most quietest month in the contests history. :teresa:
January 17, 200916 yr you liar :heehee: to work out your ratio do 100 divided by 13 (number of contest) times the amount, so if it was 4 females you'd do 7.69 x 4HAHA Ooops! Edited and thanks :D LOLSHUT. IT. YOU. :snif:

January 17, 200916 yr Because III was the worst and also this time last year :P Oh right, well quality and participation levels are quite different. But, yeah, we're very unlikely to go back to needing less than two semi finals in a non-spin-off contest any time soon. :lol:
